MIDDLETOWN — Russell Library will host an event on Wednesday, Oct. 30 on aging in place, a method of allowing seniors to receive care in their own home rather than entering an assisted living environment.

The program will begin at 7 p.m. in the Hubbard Room, and will include presentations from two guest speakers. Deborah Migneault is the legislative and community liaison for the Connecticut Commission on Aging and Frances T. "Bitsie" Clark is the executive director for HomeHaven, the umbrella organization for three aging in place villages in the New Haven area: East Rock Village, Westville Village, and Amity Village.

Both speakers will discuss the types of services available for seniors so they can avoid or delay entering an assisted living center. They will also share information on organizations that help state residents navigate available services.
